Ferrell Edmunds played seven NFL seasons, four with the Dolphins and made two Pro Bowls with one of those in Miami. Tremaine is in a battle with Georgia’s Roquan Smith to be the first linebacker off the board on Thursday.

While Edmunds may not be as advanced as Smith in the football IQ department, he makes up for it with pure athleticism you don’t see out of your typical linebacker. Elite size, speed, and explosiveness will mask some of his rookie adjustments.

One of the cons for Tremaine Edmunds is he doesn’t turn 20 until May 2nd, and is still learning the game and not yet at his whole sum of the parts. However, that may actually be hidden pros.

At just 19, he will be the youngest player taken in this draft, you can’t expect him to be a finished product. Still, to put up the numbers he did and to see how he plays the game at such a young age makes you wonder just how great he could be.

If he is already looking like a potential Pro Bowl player now, imagine what he could be at 23-24 with years under his belt. And four years of NFL knowledge etched into his brain.
